Clubs currently looking for a manager include Tottenham, West Bromwich Albion and Norwich, where Lennon has emerged as one of the favourites.

And if Mauricio Pochettino is lured away from Southampton and Paul Lambert’s position at Aston Villa comes under threat, Lennon could emerge as a front-runner for those jobs as well. (The Scotsman)

Fan calls in police over Rangers

A DISGRUNTLED fan has contacted police for a second time after Rangers refused to disclose details of Imran Ahmad and Charles Green’s contracts.

The Ibrox board were forced into a U-turn last month after they failed to show Billy Paterson details of current directors’ contracts, but the angry fan reported the club to the police under Section 229 of the Companies Act 2006.

Rangers admitted they had made an error, and disclosed details including the information that chief executive Graham Wallace was on a salary of £315,000 with a 100 per cent bonus.

Paterson has now waded in to another legal battle after the club rejected his request for information regarding the contracts of Ahmad and Green, insisting that they only need to show service contracts for the previous 12 months.

However, Paterson is fighting the decision, and claims Ahmad and Green were seen as directors of the parent company and subsidiary football board until the end of May 2013.

Police have confirmed they are investigating Paterson’s claims, while another fan reported Wallace for allegedly misleading shareholders over the company’s finances. (Daily Record)

We’ll look after Jase, vows Hibs stopper

MICHAEL Nelson has vowed to keep Jason Cummings’ feet on the ground and not let him fail to reach his potential.

The 18-year-old scored a double as Hibs overcame Hamilton 2-0 in their bid to avoid relegation, and Nelson revealed: “He was put down straight after the game and I told him to keep his feet on the ground and concentrate on Sunday. He does get kept in his place.”

Cummings, who hit a hatful of goals for the Under-20s, had never scored for the first team prior to Wednesday night, and described his goal as ‘a decent zing - I opened up a tin of beans.’

And Nelson believes the young striker’s rawness will serve him well, adding: “Hopefully that will stick with him and is a quality he will keep for years to come.” (The Scotsman)
